until o'clock, the even numbers being for
the hours and the odd for the half hours,
when eight bells is reached the counting
begins again, one bell being for half-past 4,
and so on thus making six watches during
the twenty-four The only difficulty in
telling time by this method is experienced
in the two watches of the early morning
when one wakes from a sound sleep.
In closing this letter must mention the
deck house, where the four officers have
their rooms II is veritable little cottage,
and only needs few vines trailing over its
white face to make an ideal country home;
in fact, there are even few house-tiies to
be found to add to the resemblance.
hallway leads to fair-sized mess-room,
where books and pictures are found on the
four walls. From this room four others,
with berths and all conveniences, open,
and are lighted by ports. A bathroom
also finds place, while in this winter
weather. under the cold breath of Fuji no
Yama, warm glow is given from the
steam pipes which run around the sides.
Such are few of the places on this little
world, which hope will be of interest, as
the vestibule to the new old world, which
this morning, twenty-five days since Cali
fornia faded into mist, calls us to come and
see and wonder.

% Good morning, Dottie," said grandmamma,
And she patted each little cheek
% / want TO tell You the incest thing
You've heard for many week
Last night. while you were fast asleep,
A little sister came
She cannot walk, nor talk, nor creep,
And she hasn't any name"
:" But where did the baby use to live
And who brought her here to me ~
The little one questioned with anxious face,
In her sweet sincerity.
Grandmamma smoothed the tangled hair,
And wrapped warm, soft gown
Around her darling as she said
" The good Lord brought her down.
The child burst into flood of tears,
And wept so hard, so long.
One scarce could get her broken words
=" My papa did so wrong
The Lord came right into our house,
And he never called me
Why, ever since I've been born
I've wanted the Lord to see. Tribune.

TO THE DESCENDING.

Take this for granted once for all
There is neither chance nor fate,
And to sit and wait for the sky to fall,
Is to wait as the foolish wait.
The laurel, longed for, you must earn
1t is not of the things men lend,
And though the lesson be hard to learn,
The sooner the better, my friend.
That another's head can have your crown
Is a judgment all untrue,
And TO drag this man, or the other down,
VIII not in the least raise you

For the relief and cure of all diseases
of the Stomach, Liver, Kidneys, and
Bowels, the value of Ayers Cathartic
Pills cannot be overestimated. This
remedy is also unrivaled in curing
Rheumatic and Neuralgia affections.
For keeping the Stomach, Bowels,
and Liver in good working order, have
never found any medicine equal to
Ayers Cathartic Pills. l always use
this remedy when occasion requires.
Randolph Morse, Lynchburg, Va.
About five years since, my son became
cripple from rheumatism. His joints
and limbs were drawn out of shape by
the excrueiating pain, and his general
health was very much impaired. Medi-
cines did. not reach his case until he
commenced taking Ayers Pills, three
boxes of which cured him. He is now
as free from the complaint as if he had
never had it, and his distorted limbs
have recovered their shape and pliancy.

THE PEOPLE IN THE sTEERAGE
Are divided into messes, each mess choos-
ing man to fetch the food from the gal
ley, where rice, tea, potatoes and meat are
served out. l remember that during one
trip | made there were $1,000 pounds Of
rice alone served out to the Chinese passen-
gers When to these rations are added the
preserved meats and delicacies which form
the major part o. each mans luggage one
can forIu an idea of the Celestial comfort to
be found at sea. The Chinese females oc-
cupy room set aside for them and the
children in the steerage, in the fore part of
the ship, and seldom if ever do any of them
make their appearance on deck, but when
they do. the gay coloring of their embroid-
cred robes and the trembling tinsel orna-
ments on the head add much to the effect.
have in my mind now group OF women
listening TO a man singing and playing
upon q sort of mandolin, the dark uncer-
tainty of the whaleback giving good
background Between decks, also, the
greater part OF the 100 members of the crew
md places for their berths and kits. In
conversation with the Chinese passengers 1
learn how Chris ian Country is looked
upon by Pagan eyes, and even where the
opinions are unbiased the impression
which the returning coolie brings back
with him from Christian America is GER
tainly not very favorable to our boosted
civilization. WI en- an int ligent China
man quotes TO me from newspapers and
speeches of the time OF Mr.. Burling lme,
and then turns to those of to-day, l am COLI
nered. and in defense can only say, Con-
sistency is the bugbear of little NH DIS" and
hope Emerson was right in the bro idest
sense when he uttered tina. most acceptable
idea
KEEPING THE TIME.
The course of time is kept in way
which, though very simple, is at first quite
confusing to a landsman. At noon eight
bells are rung, then follows one bell for
half-past II, TWO for j o'clock, and SO en-
